Further referring to FIGS. 2 and 4, the waterproofing module 300 includes a waterproofing element 3 and a clamping member 4. In this embodiment, the waterproofing element 3 is integrally made of rubber, and has a ring portion 31 and a sleeve portion 32. The ring portion 31 has a ring-shaped ring body 311 and a surrounding projecting strip 312. The ring body 311 has a top surface 313 and a bottom surface 314, and the surrounding projecting strip 312 projects from the top surface 313. The bottom surface 314 of the ring body 311 is formed with an engaging trench 315 such that the ring body 311 has an inverted U-shaped cross section. Additionally, the engaging trench 315 extends from the bottom surface 314 of the ring portion 31 and terminates at an inner bottom surface 316, and the ring portion 31 further has a third projecting strip 317 that projects from the inner bottom surface 316 into the engaging trench 315.

Further referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the sleeve portion 32 is formed with a tube hole 320 that is for extension of the heat pipe 23 therethrough. In this embodiment, the sleeve portion 32 includes a first sleeve segment 33 and a second sleeve segment 34 that is connected integrally to the first sleeve segment 33. The first sleeve segment 33 is connected to the ring body 311, has a C-shaped cross section, and is formed with a first inner surrounding surface 330. The second sleeve segment 34 is configured to have a C-shaped cross section, and has a second inner surrounding surface 340 that is connected to the first inner surface 330 and that cooperates with the first inner surface 330 to define the tube hole 320.

To be specific, the first sleeve segment 33 includes a first sleeve segment body 331, a second sleeve segment body 332 that is connected to a longitudinal end of the first sleeve segment body 331 and that extends radially and outwardly relative to the first sleeve segment body 331, and a second projecting strip 333. The first sleeve segment body 331 has a first outer surface 331a that is substantially U-shaped, and the second projecting strip 333 projects from the first outer surface 331a. The second sleeve segment body 332 has a second outer surface 332a that is substantially U-shaped, and a slot 332b is formed in the second outer surface 332a.

The second sleeve segment 34 has a first sleeve part 341 with a C-shaped cross section and two extending plates 342. The first sleeve part 341 has two first end rims 341a, and the extending plates 342 extend respectively from the first end rims 341a.

Additionally, the first sleeve segment 33 further includes at least one first inner strip 334 that projects from the first inner surrounding surface 330, and the second sleeve segment 34 further includes at least one second inner strip 343 that projects from the second inner surrounding surface 340.

Referring back to FIG. 2 and further referring to FIG. 9, the clamping member 4 may be made of a metal material, and has a second sleeve part 41 with a C-shaped cross section and two clamping plates 42. The second sleeve part 41 have two second end rims 411, and the clamping plates 42 extend respectively from the second end rims 411.

The engaging trench 315 of the waterproofing element 3 engages the top rim 121 of the wall body 12. When the support body 16 is disposed on the first casing member 14 (see FIG. 1) and the second casing member 15 (see FIG. 1), the first casing member 14 is in contact with the surrounding strip 312 of the ring portion 31, to secure the ring body 311 onto the top rim 121 of the wall body 12, such that the ring portion 31 is firmly positioned between the encircling wall 11 of the supporting body 16 and the first casing member 14. The line contacts between the surrounding projecting strip 312 of the ring portion 31 and the first casing member 14, and that between the third projecting strip 317 of the ring portion 31 and the top rim 121 of the wall body 12 result in tight abutments between the surrounding strip 312 and first casing member 14 and between the third projecting strip 317 and top rim 121, thereby avoiding the presence of gaps thereamong.

Further referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, the sleeve portion 32 is sleeved on the heat pipe 23 and engages the apertured portion 13 with the second sleeve segment body 332 engaging the engaging groove 133 of the apertured portion 13 and the first projecting strip 135 of the apertured portion 13 engaging the slot 332b of the second sleeve segment body 332. The second projecting member 333 of the first sleeve segment 33 abuts against the first aperture rim 131a of the first wall part 131. The first sleeve part 341 of the second sleeve segment 34 abuts against the second aperture rim 132a of the second wall part 132. The sleeve portion 32 is limited by the first casing member 14, such that the first inner strip 334 of the first sleeve segment 33 abuts tightly against an outer surrounding surface of the heat pipe 23 so as to ensure that no gap exists between the first sleeve segment 33 and the heat pipe 23.

Moreover, the configuration of the engagement between the second sleeve segment body 332 of the sleeve portion 32 and the engaging groove 133 of the apertured portion 13 and the configuration of the engagement between the first projecting strip 135 and the slot 332b also restrain fluid and dust from passing through the apertured portion 13.

Further referring to FIG. 9, the second sleeve part 41 of the clamping member 4 surrounds the first sleeve part 341 of the second sleeve segment 34, and the extending plates 342 of the second sleeve segment 34 are clamped between and secured to the clamping plates 42 of the clamping member 4. The extending plates 342 and the clamping plates 42 are secured to the block 136 such that the second inner strip 343 of the second sleeve segment 34 is urged to abut against the surface of the heat pipe 23, so as to ensure that no gap exists between the second sleeve segment 34 and the heat pipe 23.

It should be noted that, the second sleeve segment body 332 of the first sleeve segment 33 of the waterproofing element 3, and the engaging groove 133 and the first projecting strip 135 of the apertured portion 13 may be omitted, leaving the first sleeve segment 33 shortened and only the first sleeve segment body 331 to engage the apertured portion 13. Such a configuration is still capable of achieving sufficient waterproof and dustproof effect while the presence of the second sleeve segment body 332 and the engaging groove 133 of the apertured portion 13 certainly extends the length of the sleeve portion 32 to be sleeved on the heat pipe 23, for further enhancing the waterproof and dustproof effect. Moreover, the sleeve portion 32 may also be configured as an enclosed tube instead of a C-shaped tube, and is still capable of achieving the same waterproof and dustproof effect as well when being sleeved on the heat pipe 23.

Therefore, to sum up, the configuration of the waterproofing element 3 and the apertured portion 13 of the encircling wall 11 of the present invention establishes water tightness between the first casing member 14 and the top rim 121 of the wall body 12, and the configuration of the sleeve portion 32 establishes water tightness between the heat pipe 23 of the heat-dissipating module 2 and the apertured portion 13 of the encircling wall 11. Once water and dust enter the local area 120 through the opening 141 of the first casing member 14, they would hardly further travel outwardly of the local area 120 through the encircling wall 11. Compared to the above-mentioned conventional electrical device, a better waterproof and dustproof effect is thus enhanced. Moreover, the fan 21, can be detached from the electronic device casing 1 conveniently through the opening 141.
